The Rahhit 0uestion .

The question OF exterminating the
jack-rabbits in this country is being
discussed. The people owning the
land about Delano and the artesian
belt see that one of two things must
be done. Either the rabbits must go
or theySmust build tight fences. The
latter ID very difficult thing to ac-
complish. The former is no child's
play. Remembering that in the days
when stock raising was about the only
industry there were paid good bounties
for the destruction of coyotes, lions
and bears-which, by the way, en-
couraged the propagation OF rabbits
it is argued now, that as things have
changed about, the country should
again come to the rescue and put a
price on the head of the fes-
tive jack. OF course it is OF no use
for Kern to undertake work of this
kind unless Tulare will either join
with us or be bound under a heavy
penalty to keep her rabbits at home.
Those who have been giving some at
tention to the subject say that they
think Tulare will be willing to do what
is right in the matter. 1t is suggested
that the bounty be small-about 2
cents per scalp at first-and that
"round-ups" be encouraged. Consid-
ering the very rapid rate at which
this tribe increases, it must be done
by lively, vigorous action. Kill half
the rabbits in the country to-day and
stop, and in very short time the loss
will be fully made good by the growth
of new generation. Now while the
plains are bare and the rabbits are
more easily discovered, and while they
are to be found chiefly about the fields
is the best time to begin operations.-

Shecly,s Sentence Continued.

Dan Sheely, who was convicted ot
burglary in Judge Cheney's Court
was called for sentence yesterday, but
j. M. Damron, ESQ.,, his counsel
moved for a new trial. on the ground
of misconduct of the jury, error Of law
committed by the Court in giving in
structions to the jury, and in over
ruling objections interposed by de-
fendant's counsel. Also, because the
verdict was contrary to evidence, and
further, on the ground of newly dis
covered evidence. Counsel said
that the last ground stated was the
one upon which the defendants
mainly depended for new trial. The
matter was continued until Tuesday
October 18th.
